The shape is similar to before, but with larger dimensions that are designed to create more interior space, while details such as the C-shaped daytime running lights on higher-spec cars and the prominent Renault badge on the nose help the Megane to stand out from the crowd. The Megane has an evolutionary look, which is no bad thing when you consider how radical past versions have been.

The latest Megane, facelifted in 2020, builds on the talents of past models by adding some much needed quality and technology to the mix. The current car is the Megane Mk4, and it was launched in 2016 after the Mk3 had a relatively long eight-year shelf life. The Renault Megane is a staple of the compact hatchback class and has been on sale since 1995.

The plug-in hybrid version could be of interest to those with an eye on low running costs, although there isn't really a compelling reason to recommend Renault's family hatchback over its more complete rivals. It has the looks and enough ability to attract some attention from buyers but, ultimately, it comes up short against the top competition.Ī facelift in 2020 has added a little zest, while the introduction of fresh on-board tech and extra standard kit should strengthen the Megane's appeal. The Renault Megane is more stylish than ever, although it’s not the sharpest car in its class to drive.
